Have a Capital One QuickSilver WMC @ $10250.00 and Venture Visa Signature @ $16,000. QS will be eligible for a CLI on 12/31/16 and Venture 02/18/17. What I want to do is roll the Venture credit line into the Quicksilver. - Quicksilver is my oldest card (6.5 years) and has a better rate than the Venture, which I just opened in May. I've used all the miles on the Venture and really don't have use for the card. I know the clock resets for the CLI if I move the credit line over to QS. Pro's & Con's ???
Should I wait and try for a CLI on the Quicksilver or just not worry about it?

I would combine while you still can. Just make sure the card you want to "combine and close", is $0 bal/ and all rewards cashed in first. Youll still CLI in the future, and I had to wait one year after combining before mine. Youve already taken the hit on your reports, so closing now vs waiting another 6 months will make no difference. The closed acct will still remain positive on your reports for 10 yrs, and still factor in to your AAOA/AHOA....
Its nice to have one card with a nice high CL. Good luck
Have there been any changes to the rules on this? 1 year delay for a CLI instead of 6 months?
Also, there's still no hard pull right? For sure?

depends on what is important to you, if it were me I would combine first and cli after. even if you lose the cli you have a single card with a ~$26K cl on it. not to shabby in my book

That's the only real "con".
Also, do you want to have one less account? I had 5 cards which I consolidate into 2, but I think in a way it was more useful to have multiple accounts.
I'm pretty much in the same boat. Got a QS WMC ($7.25k, <10yrs old, 10.39 APR) and a Venture Sig Visa ($16k, <6mos old, 17.49 APR). I've used all my Venture miles and I'm eligible to roll my Venture into my QS on or around Jan 7th. I'll probably never use the perks, but should I own some type of Visa Signature card? Is it good to diversify and have both WMC and VS?
@cashcorp1, If the end result is merging them, best to do it while it's available. Those limits combined together will make one helluva good credit line with C1. Do it while the button is available unless you believe you'll get a good CLI with either one. C1 has pretty much stopped the CLI on my oldest card. I don't put enough spend through either one to even touch their current CLs. I'm at the end of the line lol!
